A radio reading service or reading service for the blind is a service of many public radio stations, where a narrator reads newspapers and magazines aloud for the benefit of the blind and vision-impaired. It is most often carried on a subcarrier, with radio receivers permanently tuned to a given station in the area.

• In the U.S.A., most National Public Radio stations carry a local or regional reading service, and many are branded under the Radio Talking Book Network name.
• In Australia, the Radio Print Handicapped Network includes Sydney's 2RPH and Canberra's Radio 1RPH that exist entirely as a reading service.

Many other stations in other countries also carry such a service.

In television, the equivalent is videodescription, a narration track on the optional second audio program.
